    Royal Delft

    Delft

    Accessible Delft Pottery museum but with some steep ramps

    4

    Date of visit: October 2025

    I am a disabled person. I have experience of challenges around: accessing toilets, dexterity or coordination and moving around.

    Walkway through the factory area with level floors, painted lines on the floor and guard rails to show where to walk.Rather steep ramp with thin carpet from the entrance to the main museum section. It has handrails.Entrance area with wooden floor and ramp to the cloakrooms.Pottery exhibition with level floors surrounding it.Exterior front entrance with trees and bushes but enough space to get even a large wheelchair through.Cafe area with tables around the edges and movable chairs. The floor is wooden.

    We found this venue to be mostly accessible, though I did need some assistance with getting to the toilet and with some of the ramps.

    The venue is mostly on one level, though there are a couple of steps from reception to the museum area and cafe. There is a permanent ramp into the museum but it was too steep for me to manage independently, not helped by it being carpeted. After that, everything was very accessible and easy until we got to the shop/cafe area, where there were more steep ramps. The cafe was lovely and we were able to move chairs to accommodate me and my assistance dog. Getting to the toilets/reception area was via a portable ramp which was also too steep.

    I travelled to this place by walk or wheel

    We visited Royal Delft whilst on a motorhome tour of the Netherlands. We stayed at Delftse Hout and walked/wheeled to the museum, which took about half an hour. The whole town is flat and fairly easy to wheel around.

    The toilet was okay but not that big and there was only one, in reception, which meant going up and down the steep ramps. It was clean and had grab rails, so I was okay.
